FBI Raids Office Of Trump Lawyer Michael Cohen
Content adapted from this Zerohedge.com article : Source
Michael Cohen, lawyer for President Trump, said the FBI took possession of confidential communication between him and his clients. While it was initially reported that the seizure had nothing to do with the President, nobody knows, at this time, what the target of the search is.
CBS is reporting that it is unclear if the raid is in reference to Stormy Daniels, the Mueller probe, or something completely different.
The Wall Street Journal is claiming that the home, office, and hotel room of Cohen were all searched.
Stocks, meanwhile, staged a reverse of almost 800 points on fears, in addition to this news, of trade fallout.
This coincided with the Times reporting of the raid of Cohen's offices.
"Today the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York executed a series of search warrants and seized the privileged communications between my client, Michael Cohen, and his clients," said Stephen Ryan, his lawyer. "I have been advised by federal prosecutors that the New York action is, in part, a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller."
Cohen is thought to have paid Daniels $130,000, a topic that investigators are wanting to explore.
As the NYT adds the FBI seized emails, tax documents, business records and payments to Stormy Daniels from Cohen's office under several search warrants.
The White House has not commented on the raid yet. Last week, Trump repeated that he was unaware of the payment made by Cohen to Daniels.

I've been reading about all the Qanon stuff and it seems there is a war going on between Trump and the deep state. Whether all of it is real or not I'm not sure, but this seems to be in line with some powerful players trying to take Trump out.
It didn't seem so easy for the FBI to go and investigate Hilary, seems like some puppets strings are being pulled to try and get some dirt on Trump. I've always thought that people getting in trouble for having relations with others is their own business.
Next election we'll get a president bachelor and we'll have an all new season of The Bachelor: Presidential Inquiry where our president makes moves to find his new love, in and out of the bedroom. Trump will host.
Any show earnings will go to school and infrastructure(AKA military spending)
I can't imagine having investors making losses because of this uncalled for stuff. Clearly if you know the stock market is in for some drop in prices when you go on with the planned raid, do you have to continue with the exact plan. FBI could have found a different way of carrying on the raid without affecting anyone especially the investors that are making the economy stand.
The order was signed by Rosenstein who is implicated in the whole Clinton/Muller/Election/Deep State stuff.
